  • Hi

    Quick question. How long do you leave the chocolate before you put it on the cake. I had a go but think my chocolate was either to thick or not set enough as it ouzed up onto the cake. oops. Thanks

  • @karenandkarlz It really depnds on the weather. On a cold day you only need to leave it for a few minutes (5 minutes or so), but on a hot humid summer day, it can be a real problem getting it hard enough at room temperture to be able to put it around the cake. I recommend working in air conditioning if possible in summer.

  • you really make it look so easy... i loved it! thanks so much for this tutorial =)

    best wishes from Chile!

  • @letto2103 Thanks letto ... glad you enjoyed it.  Happy New Year to you in Chile!

  • @Pakistan1stt Hi thanks for the comment. This is just normal cooking chocolate. If you give it a try, my tip is that it works best on a cold day. If you try it in summer or on a particularly hot day, I would recommend working in an air conditioned room if possible.

  • wow very nice, looks easy ,but it needs a try.. would you please tell me, is this a normal chocolate or it has to be modeling chocolate ?

  • @halayamani Thanks! I'm pretty sure I used a warm knife (dipped in hot water than quickly wiped dry) to cut the cake and had no probs with the collar breaking.

  • Nice video! Haven't seen many video tutorials about chocolate collars so thanks for that! Quick question, was it easy to cut through the chocolate collar? Does it just break where you'r cutting?

    Thanks again and great job!
